Cleaning kits...

Anyone use this?

If so is it any good?

Reputedly pretty average, but for £24..

At that price point I'd suggest one of the DetailedOnline kits. Some of their products are very good (I've only used a couple myself), and one of their kits allows you to choose the contents.

Their Korean microfibre cloths are very good value too.

Very average that's why they are cheap.
Autoglanz do some similar kits and are good products.

I was going to mention the Autoglanz cleaning kit, but at £90 it's in a whole different ballpark. IMHO a lot of their other kits are focused on doing one job several ways, which is daft.
Don't know why they can't offer a pre-wash/apc/shampoo/quick detailer bundle for people who just want the basics.

Also worth noting that their discount sales are so good that I'm amazed they do any business when they don't have a sale on!

Another budget option is to go to Wilko and get some Simoniz and ArmorAll products. A lot of the Simoniz stuff is £3.50 in the current sale (Simoniz often on sale), and some of it is good (the glass cleaner and detail spray).

The scene is mental for product choice but a walk down the autoglym halfords section isn't a bad thing when the offers are on.

Ok so the bottom line is that kit is not worth more than £30 in any event sooo it is not the bargain it would otherwise appear...... I have several bits and bobs for cleaning cars (even the WIlliams F1 kit) but I just thought if that kit was worth 80 or so but on offer, then I'd get it anyway...

In all fairness its probably adequate for the home enthusiast, detailers tend to be extremely fussy and always looking for the next best thing.

Yeah I don't mind it being adequate, but I already have a fair few odds and sods.. I just thought is it a pretty good kit (which I would expect for the £100 alleged original price) at a good discount and if so I'd buy it....

But if it is moderate and worth 30 then not worth adding to the same products I already have!

I think EZ Car Care get most of their custom through heavy Facebook/Instagram advertising of their frequent deals, more so than any other brand that I can think of.
